ALWAYS FILE METAL FIRST BEFORE TESTING.
To utilize the AGT1 technology to its fullest and
to protect yourself from potential fraud from
heavily plated or other fake gold products being
represented as true karat gold,
it is critical that
you first file down to the underlying metal
in every sample being tested and then test
the filed area.
While this is the most effective
method to penetrate the surface, some people
have had success using a thumbtack to penetrate
the surface of the gold or even a pencil eraser
vigorously rubbed on the gold surface as an
alternative method has been used.
Heavily gold
plated and gold-filled jewelry will test as karat
gold if not filed first.
USE COMMON SENSE BEFORE INTERPRETING
THE TEST RESULTS.
You should always follow
some common sense guidelines before making your
final determination of the karat or authenticity of the
precious metal being tested. Please keep in mind
that those misrepresenting fake jewelry as real can
be extremely clever and will use many tricks to make
you think it is real. Be aware that scam artists may
allow you to test a real piece of gold jewelry and then
while distracting you they will switch the piece for a
fake.
